This week on RuPaul’s Drag Race trophies were snatched, and there was one of the most intense stand-off moments we’ve seen in the workroom all season! Out of the gate, this one was about the enigmatic Pearl, and we were taken on a roller coaster ride! So Jon Mallow and I have broken it DOWN for you, and are happy to serve our own Despy Awards dish. SPOILER ALERT: We give away all the winners and losers, this week, so watch the full episode at LogoTV.com before you watch us.
I loved this episode! It was packed with celebs (who knew we’d see Lil’ Kim tonight?! And Cher! Bjork! J-Lo! Lady Gaga! The late Joan Rivers, even. Oh, and the real Kathy Griffin returned!) and who doesn’t love award-show babble??! Some queens sparkled! And we even got some genius acceptance speech moments (“You don’t like me. You really don’t like me!”). And as always, Katya helped make everything clearer. (And who can’t appreciate a Bob Ross shout-out?)
Here are few screengrabby moments to tease you ’til you watch…
Look at us! We take this all very seriously!!! (That’s just ‘cuz we’re naturally despy ourselves.)
Umm, consider this trophy snatched.
Props to Lil’ Kim Big Kim! Totally stealing this look for next Halloween.
Jon and I both have a new-found love for Miss Fame, now that we’re fully aware of her mad throat skills and chicken love. Two-piece and a biscuit, for everyone! #DontCluckItUp
But seriously… That RuPaul/Pearl face-off was beyooooond. Awkward, intense and unforgettable!!! Two strong characters not backing down. But Mother Ru is not gonna be toyed with. Children better listen!
Yup, we kinda were feeling how Max felt watching the big Ru/Pearl stare-down. Ayyyyyyyy!
My proudest moment? Winning Mr. Gloryhole 1967! First, I need to thank Jesus… And that trucker named Hoss at the rest stop on 1-81, Exit 52.
But let’s get back to truly important matters such as…
You’re welcome! And thanks for watching the Despy Awards! G’night everybody!!!
